Description: CLEAN American Flyer O gauge Tunnel Prewar 1920s 240 Paper Mache Great shape 242 CLEAN American Flyer O gauge Tunnel Prewar 1920s 240 Paper Mache Great shape 242 Description Here's another listing by Lone Star Trains and Collectibles, YOUR Classic Era Train Headquarters! NOT OFTEN FOUND THIS CLEAN SCROLL down into the listing past the description to see more pictures. Don't forget to enlarge them! You are looking at a vintage 1920's prewar American Flyer O gauge tunnel. During this era, they were often made largely of a thick paper material simialr to paper mache, then handpainted. There were many different ones made by Flyer in those days--different sizes and slight design variations. THIS ONE has the part number written on the inside in the old school pricing crayon hobby stores used back then "101-240" and 95 cents. So cool! While there ARE a series of tunnels numbered in the 240s, I have not seen one numbered 240. The closest I have seen is #242. This tunnel measures approximately 10" long, 10" wide outside to outside, About 7 inches tallThe inside of the opening (measured one opening--other may vary a little): 6.75" wide and a hair under 5 1/8" tall. This tunnel is really good looking. The colors looks great. It is perfect for Christmas, but really looks good on any O gauge layout ANY time of the year. This one was used by Lionel, Marx, and Flyer fans. Great with O or even S! FEATURES: 7" High Footprint is 10" x 10"The inside of the opening (measured one opening--other may vary a little): 6.75" wide and a hair under 5 1/8" tall. Paper Mache construction with solid hard cardboard understructure Cool texture 1920s Mountian vista and road on the sides CONDITION: C-7. Really much cleaner than most of these you come across. Looks nice. No tears or breaks. The finish looks nice. The original hobby store crayon pricing is visible on the inside. SCROLL DOWN into the listing to see more pictures which you can enlarge.
